[Verse 1: Stephin Merritt] Don't look away, I don't think I could stand it So don't look away, as my heart couldn't handle it There's a fire in your eyes and it's melting the ice In my heart
[Verse 2] Don't blink an eye, they're so beautiful open Just let them cry or the spell will be broken And moments in your gaze have been turning to days In my heart
[Bridge] We've never met and yet we're in love Never forget one look is enough
[Verse 3] Just as long as you don't look away We can never be lovers, there's one chance to take There won't be any others, I'll be spending my life With your eyes like a knife in my heart
